Tasting - Codirosso Chianti



Name:  Codirosso
Variety:  Chianti
Region:  Tuscany
Country:  Italy
Year:  2014
Price:  $13
Winery review:  Ruby red color with purple reflections. Intense vinous bouquet with hints of violets and dark cherry fruit. The flavor is full of ripe fruit and a hint of spice. It is well balanced and dry. The finish is persistent and satisfying.
Additional winemaker notes:  I did not care for this wine.  It was very tannic at the end, too much bite for my tastes.  I picked up on lots of raspberry.  If I tried this with food, I might have enjoyed it more.
